spoiler
     
        1. A remark which reveals important plot elements
        from books or movies, thus denying the reader (of the article)
        the proper suspense when reading the book or watching the
        movie.
     
        2. Any remark which telegraphs the solution of a problem or
        puzzle, thus denying the reader the pleasure of working out
        the correct answer (see also {interesting}).  Either sense
        readily forms compounds like "total spoiler", "quasi-spoiler"
        and even "pseudo-spoiler".
     
        By convention, {Usenet} news articles which are spoilers in
        either sense should contain the word "spoiler" in the Subject:
        line, or guarantee via various tricks that the answer appears
        only after several screens-full of warning, or conceal the
        sensitive information via {rot13}, or some combination of
        these techniques.
